The normal convention only works well when people snip and reply to the relevant bits underneath. It's non-snipping that's the real problem. It seems virtually to be the norm in many non-computer usenet groups. - Richard. -- Richard Kimber http://www.psr.keele.ac.uk/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
